Let's get this over with - I have a folder on this computer called 'blog' which has photos that I plan to use in blogs. However, this folder has grown and grown and photos that were never used in a blog still stay in the folder. So I went through and organised the folder yesterday, when I woke up at 3am with nothing better to do. I found some photos that I wanted to blog about so I didn't delete them all.

Let's start with some gothic, red makeup:

I actually did a video tutorial on this, but I deleted it because I don't like how the makeup turned out. It was a pretty long time ago too!

I look so different! Oh well!

Next, I'll show you some photos from the recent media thing. I really loved the nails I wore:

Even though they were soooo heavy!

OMG, most of you will know about how bad those photos turned out! I can't believe it, originally, I just thought it was the bad lighting and angle - but no! When I looked back at the photos we took with MY camera (which is very forgiving), I still looked soooo bad!

How unfair is that? I remember taking more care with my makeup than usual - but it turned out so much worse. My eyebrows were arched too highly, my eyelashes were slanted, etc. I had a LOT of photos from that day but I deleted almost all of them because they upset me too much to look at!

Still nowhere near as bad as the photos they used in hundreds of newspapers and magazines around this world! ARGH!

Moving on, we went shopping a while ago - like before Christmas! I tried to wear 'normal' clothes:

I didn't really like it that much though - maybe another time I will.

This next photo is from 1 year ago! I really need to be more organised!

2 and 3 are my favourites. It's just from a prank channel on Youtube that I'm subscribed to. Every time I watch those videos I cry with laughter, I find them soooo funny! So I made two rings, one saying 'HOY' and one saying 'EHH'! >_<

So, now are some more recent photos! The other day we went for a little walk before going to the doctors. I'm unwell again but this time I have a nice ear infection to go with it - in both ears! Awesome! It turns out I had two ruptured eardrums, and I was hearing annoying noises in both ears - also air was coming out of them when I blew my nose! I have some ear drops now though, so hopefully my ears will heal and the infection will go away soon, then I'll be able to hear properly!

So, yeah - I'm a little unwell again, but I don't want to stay in bed all the time (even though I'm in bed as I'm typing this!), so we went for a nice walk around where we live.

We just walked to two landmarks near where we live, 'The Salt and Pepper Pots' - that's their nickname. They're really called 'Lunds Tower' and 'Wainmans Pinnacle'. They were built sometime in the 1800's I think, so they're not very old. They're still pretty cool though, this is 'Lunds Tower':

You can climb up it:

Inside it's pitch black though, apart from some TINY windows occasionally. I kept thinking I was going to fall back down the spiral stairs!

The view from the top was pretty awesome!

As we were walking across to 'Lainmans Pinnacle', we saw a guy sat on his bike on the edge of a rock, I would fall off the edge if I did that!

The man talking to him is a farmer who lives nearby the area, he talked to us as we were walking back. It was funny though because, when he was talking to us, he pointed to a beautiful mansion covered in Ivy that was far away, just before the horizon. He said 'Look at that, there used to be a building there that was built before the Renaissance, they tore it down in the 1800's and replaced it with that Victorian monstrosity'.

I love living in this area, where it's so historic that a Victorian mansion is considered a 'monstrosity'! There are things that are 1000's of years old though around here though so I can understand how they see it like that! Like, there are some rocks that druids carved into, you can climb down into it and everything! There's also a 'Trilithic' (I think that's the right word) structure - like those from 'Stonehenge'.

Anyway, 'Wainmans Pinnacle':

It didn't have a date on though, unfortunately!

The pinnacle, and some of the surrounding rocks, have carvings in:

It's a really nice area.

Neton posing as 'Gollum'!:

After going to the doctors I finally brushed my hair and we went to the pub - I looked bad though so you're only getting a photo of my nails!

We did the pub quiz and scored 7 out of 50! Our new low! The questions were so difficult - we just put 'Mr T' for most of the answers!

The next day, we went to the Tower and Pinnacle again - it's such a nice place. We hung around on some of the rocks for a while, near the Pinnacle:

I look my wellies off and then got too cold because of it!:

One sock is inside-out - oops!

When we were walking back, we stopped in an area with lots of sheep. They were all so cute!

One of them stared at us for the entire time we were there and then followed us for a while after we left. So cute!

Anyway, Neton bought me some things to cheer me up until I'm better:

I named the owl 'Ooccoo'! After the species in 'Zelda: Skyward Sword'!

He also got me a seriously pretty Hula Hoop:

So pretty! Just looking at it cheers me up!

He also bought me some games to keep me from being too bored!

- Monster Hunter 3

- Zack and Wiki

- Metroid: Other M

Has anyone played these before? I'm playing the Monster Hunter one at the moment and it's confusing me a little.

Oh, may I just take a moment to rant about this foundation stick?:

I bought it for Manba, it's specifically for dark skin - but it's so light! It's lighter than my face with BB Cream on! So, yeah - that's no good for me.

This one, however, is pretty good:

I lined my drawers with scented liners:

Sometimes I open my drawers just to smell them! >_<

So yeah, that's over with - now my blog folder is nice and clear! Yay!

Saturday, 8 March 2014

So, lately, I haven't really done many productive things. I've had to turn down so many media opportunities! Mostly because they're obsessed about me wanting to be Barbie and spending 4 hours getting ready everyday.

The Jeremy Kyle show asked me to go on so he could interview me and, I have to admit, I did turn that one down just because of the stigma! I had that song in my head: 'My lifestyle's terribly wild, but you'll never catch me on The Jeremy Kyle Show' - haha >_<

I was kind of looking forward to one of them though, 'This Morning' - which is a big show here in the UK. However, they were actually the ones to turn me down like 2 days before I was due on because I don't take 4 hours to get ready, they admitted that they should have researched me a little bit more before asking me on the show! Oh well!

So, days have just been days lately, it feels strange. I don't really have anything much going on at the moment - apart from a documentary in America that I might be in, but that's about it at the moment!

So, I've just been relaxing and doing 'normal' things!

I'm so in love with these nails though!:

I was going to sell these nails in my shop but they are sooo difficult to make and they took so long! The gold parts are actually metal, so it was really difficult to mould it to the nail and trim parts off/file it/etc! Oh well!

Omg though, we were going out the other night and I couldn't find my eyebrow pencil! I'm a little poorly again now, so maybe that's why I wasn't thinking straight because I tried drawing an eyebrow on in LIPGLOSS and then going over it in brown eyeshadow. I had glossy, ginger eyebrows!

It didn't work.

I wiped that off and then tried drawing the eyebrow on in PINK LIPLINER and then going over that in eyeshadow. My eyebrows were BRIGHT ORANGE!

So, that didn't work either.

I wiped them off again and just drew them on in white pencil and went over that with brown eyeshadow. They still came out ginger for some reason. But yeah, I was past caring at this point, so I went out with ginger eyebrows:

Oops! Oh well!

Anyway, here are some more photos of my nails, with and without flash:

The bases of the pink ones are glittery and the purple are shiny/two-tone!

Blue drink!

Netons family came to visit. I wore the dress that his mum bought me for Christmas, it's one of my favourite dresses now! So, we went out and got drunk (as usual):

Which reminds me! People keep mentioning how they're worried for me because I get drunk so much, some of you are worried I'm an alcoholic! Don't worry! I'm not! Most people my age go out drinking 1-2 times a week, which is what I usually do - it's not all I do though! I do plenty of other things, Charity stuff, TV/media/events, spending time in nature/with pets - I just don't blog about it. Also, I RARELY drink alone, which I think is a sign of alcoholism. So yeah, don't worry! Haha >_<

Anyway, as you know, I like to be silly after going out drinking, we usually go for a wonder around the countryside/look at stars/go shopping in 24-hour Asda.

Neton really likes that photo for some reason. /\

I love this photo!:

Haha >_<

I pretended I was 'coming out of the phone box':

Here, I was telling a stone off I think:

I love how our village is green, even the walls! It's so old, quaint and cool!

Anyway, one last photo of my nails:

They were so difficult!

Neton bought me some perfume:

I love it!

He bought me another perfume for 'International Womens Day' - he calls it 'International Ladies Day' though, because he knows I don't like been called a woman! Haha >_<

It's 'Britney Spears: Curious'. He gave me it a day early yesterday because he said he couldn't wait! Haha >_< Then today he came home with ANOTHER perfume - 'Britney Spears: Believe'! He also bought me a card (Womens Day cards don't exist so he bought a pink birthday card, crossed out the 'birthday' and wrote 'Ladies Day'!)! It said 'To my Lady' on the envelope! He's so sweet! Haha >_<

Oh, I forgot to say on Chinese New Year, we had 'purikura' - it was such a cheap machine in Manchester, so the quality is so bad! Oh well, we can't be picky, we don't have purikura here!

Oh, but Neton also bought me a game lately - and I'm actually ADDICTED to it! I'm not lying, I'm literally addicted - it's on pause as I'm typing this. I'm typing impatiently, because I want to continue playing it. I was up late last night/this morning playing it!
